Lupz27 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Would you give Seattle back their #10 pick for him, and do you think that would be enough if he is even available (think they have what they think is a good plan at QB not sure what). Metcalf seems like a pipe dream but what do you think it would cost if available. Man Moore and Metcalf would bring a compete level the Jets haven’t seen in over a decade. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Honestly, I would. What receiver are we going to get thats going to equate to DK or his potential? I just do not see Seattle trading a 24 year old stud for their 1st round pick. Talk about an off-season revolving around Wilson. This would be the move to make.

Popular Post Beerfish Posted March 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2022 Guys with that kind of high end talent do not just get dealt for no reason. Metcalf is the type of guy we need no doubt, big physical bully wr. The only issue is that he was showing signs of becoming Antonio Brown last year. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could swing Metcalf and we were comfortable he would not implode that might be a move to look at. As it is after today it looks more and more like defense in FA and offense in the draft.

Would depend on the deal for Cooper. If he is released and you can get him at a cap reasonable price maybe. But not at $20 million straight off the cap. He is not a slam dunk contributor by any means, so if you were to trade for him say and I assume use #10 for defense in this scenario and we get a declining older receiver, have something like $12 million in opportunity cost and pass on potentially the top receiver that is a big negative move that hurts the Jets for more than just next season. We just got out from under some horrible FA contracts. And we just go and do it again? If today showed anything, the FA targets we actually fancied to target all got tagged. Dallas would not release Cooper if they thought he was still a #1. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR24 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 You do whatever you have to do to get him. Metcalf Davis and Moore is a phenomenal WR group, add a decent TE in there and we have a good offense 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And honestly we should’nt even be worrying about cap space we have plenty of it. Not to mention next year we can free up close to $60m in cap space if need be (Mosley, Lawson, Davis). Not to mention DK needs an extension soon as well. So again I’d rather pay Cooper and keep our 10th pick instead of trading 10 for DK 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly there are teams that view it as you do that there is plenty of cap and we can just sign whomever and then restructure, we went though that with Tannenbaum. I think the Jets are not in a space where they can do that. If we had a stronger base and we could go all in that might be different but I think we still need to be measured prudent and make long term moves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point the thought is they would consider taking the dead cap hit in a trade if it meant landing premium compensation, but yes, they can also decide to wait until 6/1 to trade him as the Falcons did with Julio Jones. In either scenario, I think he'll have a pretty robust market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallas would not release Cooper if they thought he was still a #1. I'd be surprised if they traded for their pick back. I'd do the trade straight up for 10 but they would likely want more than that. The optics of it are bad, just like when Miami almost traded the Texans #3 pick back to them for Watson last year. I would prefer Cooper and on 3 one year deals because we won't be able to sign him in FA without drastically overpaying. You then don't have to reach for a WR, could take one in the 2nd or 3rd round and let them learn. Basically I think we have more cap space than we can actually spend on good FAs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untouchable Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Yes The dude is a physical freak averaging 10 TD’s a year and he just turned 24.

But we cant just assume the same will be true just because it happened once. It happened to work out for both teams. It's been stated in so many threads before when this trade scenario is brought up...this is not that kind of WR class and there are zero guarantees we are getting a stud WR even if hes the first off the board at 10. Pay your money and take your chances with Cooper. Stop complaining about the salary. We have space and we need to inject this offense with bonifide talent to properly evaluate Wilson. If Cooper looks past his prime, we can move on from him and/or Davis next year. No harm no foul. If he is good and Wilson sucks we have the peices to lure a vet QB hopefully for win now mode. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is really good, one of the best. He has one year on his contract and then will ask for a gazillion dollars. Every draft pick is risky however their are plenty of Wrs ibn this draft that we dont even have to take at #10 that seem destined to be quality NFL players. Wilson, Burk, and London all seem worthy of the #10 pick and Dotson, Pickens, Metchie, Watson, Peirce are all players that will most likely go in round 2 and beyond. They all will not crush our cap like DK will after a year. Heck, we may already have our #1 in Moore. And if you havent given up on our 24 year old, 6'3 Wr with blazing speed, we might (slight as it might seem today) have our future #2. I find there is little reason to trade for DK or any Wr when the draft seems so loaded 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maury77 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I'd offer the 10th pick to Seattle for Metcalf and pick 41 in the second round. None of the WRs in this draft have Metcalf's upside and Douglas has a spotty drafting record anyway. Picking up Seattle's second rounder also allows the Jets to have another pick in the second for a draft that looks somewhat deep but light on top end talent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
